How to enable 2FA on Schneider Electric

← Schneider Electric overview Supported

Schneider Electric supports app-based two-factor authentication (2FA). Turning it on adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone can't unlock your Schneider Electric account.

Step-by-step setup

1
Sign in to Schneider Electric and open your Schneider Electric account security settings.
2
Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.
Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.
3
Scan the QR code with MS Authenticator App.
Open MS Authenticator App, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code Schneider Electric displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.
4
Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.
Type the code MS Authenticator App generates to verify and link your Schneider Electric account.
5
Save your backup codes.
Store the recovery codes Schneider Electric gives you somewhere safe — you'll need them if you lose your phone.

Menu names on Schneider Electric can change — the official Schneider Electric 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.
